Engaging Missions

Our annual Missions Fest celebration is coming up on July 28th during the Community Hour (9:45am). This year will be slightly different and we can wait to invite you and your families to join us.

During the Community Hour there will be an interactive experience where individuals and families can meander through different "parts of the world" and speak with the missionaries who work/live there.  (Kids will be expected to stay with their parents.)

adventure

Travel around our building to adventure to new lands. Each area around the building will be decorated differently according to that culture!

Passports

Part of our interactive experience will be passports! Move around different parts of the building to travel to each of the lands and get your passports stamped. This is an especially great activity for families with small children.

learning

Meet our missionaries at each station and expand your horizons by learning about cultures, foods, and what is happening around the globe!

Missions Support 101

Our missionaries are out there and we are here at home. Here are several ways in which you can support missions from where you are:

Help with directed prayers

Pray faithfully for specific needs that missionaries share in their communications.  You can also pray for their alignment with God’s vision, and for their faith, wisdom, protection and health. Pray for the cultural and linguistic challenges they often face.

Help with frequent communication

Missionaries can experience periods of loneliness and homesickness.  Frequent and regular communications such as short notes, emails, birthday greetings, care packages and caring conversations assures missionaries of our ongoing committed partnership with them.

Help with a time commitment

It takes time to build a trusted relationship with a missionary. It takes time to provide sincere and frequent communications, to pray faithfully for specific concerns and needs and to listen to and read compassionately and responsively regarding events in their lives.

Help by celebrating together

rejoice with missionaries as they overcome political and religious barriers, as they build relationships and especially as they bring a lost soul to Christ.

Help with Financial Support

Our church’s mission budget is 10% of our total budget. A faithful sacrificial financial commitment to our church’s overall budget provides for our mission needs.  In addition, you, or your life group or Bible study group may commit to provide financial support to a missionary directly.
